Join the Delaware Charity Challenge Indoor Triathlon!

We are hurtling towards year’s end at breakneck speed. Looking for a little extra motivation to get your butt in the box and stay on track to get 2016 started right?

Join CrossFit Riverfront in signing up for the 1st Annual Delaware Charity Challenge Winter Indoor Triathlon, held on January 9, 2016 at the Chase Center. The Winter Games consist of an indoor triathlon and scooter challenge, along with the Winter Race to Raise fundraising competition.

Fundraising Competition

When you register as a team, you get to choose the charity of your choice to raise funds and awareness for. All proceeds raised by the team go directly toward the selected charity, and the three teams that collectively raise the most money will win additional prize money for their charity. The Winter Race to Raise Fundraising competition runs from October 1, 2015 to January 8, 2016.

CrossFit Riverfront is the Warm-Up/Cool-Down Sponsor for the Winter Indoor Triathlon and we are raising money for Faithful Friends! Faithful Friends is a private, non-profit, No Kill animal shelter located in Wilmington. Their programs and services include rescue and adoption, healthy pet clinics, spay/neuter clinics, free pet food & supply bank, pet therapy services, and community outreach. You can support Faithful Friends by donating to our team fundraising page here.

Indoor Triathlon

Each of these last 15 minutes with five minutes transition time, and scores will be determined by combined distance. You can register as an individual or as part of a 3-person team. Kids are welcome with parental permission! A discount is being offered on registrations for kids under 12 in the Medley Triathlon.
